Significant, drought alleviating rainfall is becoming increasingly likely Friday through Saturday. Low thunder chances as well. Several bouts of rain as a large weather system sweeps eastward will bring chances for a couple inches of rainfall over much of Tennessee, and potentially into southwest NC and southwest VA. Gusty winds at times.
A warming trend is expected this week with temperatures 15 to 20 degrees above normal especially by Thursday. Highs in the 60s can be expected for much of the area this week. Beneficial rainfall is expected Friday through Saturday with locally heavy rainfall for some.
